To start a car with a flathead screwdriver, first locate the battery. Once the battery is found, remove the negative terminal cap and touch the end of the screwdriver to the exposed metal. Next, find the starter solenoid and touch the positive terminal of the battery to the large metal bolt on top of it.
Finally, turn the key in the ignition to start the car.
- Unscrew the cap to the gas tank and insert the screwdriver
- Turn the screwdriver until it hits the bottom of the tank
- Withdraw the screwdriver and put the cap back on
- Open up the hood and locate the battery
- Attach one end of a jumper cable to the positive terminal of your battery and touch the other end to a metal part of your car engine block that is not painted (you may need to scrape away some paint first)

Can a Screwdriver Start a Car?
No, a screwdriver cannot start a car. A screwdriver is not the right tool to use to turn the ignition key in a car. The correct way to start a car is by using the key.
How Do You Start a Car With a Screwdriver on the Starter?
If your car has an automatic transmission, you can’t start it with a screwdriver on the starter. You can, however, start it with a screwdriver on the flywheel. This will cause the engine to turn over but not start.
If your car has a manual transmission, you can start it with a screwdriver on the starter if you engage the clutch while doing so.
Can You Start a Car With a Screwdriver And a Hammer?
No, you cannot start a car with a screwdriver and hammer. While the screwdriver can be used to pry open the door and the hammer could potentially break the window, once inside, there is nothing that either of these tools can do to actually start the car. In order to start a car, you need a key (or some other type of ignition device) which turns on the engine.
The engine then needs fuel and air in order to run. So even if you did manage to get inside the car using a screwdriver and hammer, you would still not be able to start it.
How Do You Hotwire a Car With a Screwdriver?
In order to hotwire a car with a screwdriver, you will need to locate the wire that runs from the positive terminal of the battery to the starter solenoid. Once you have located this wire, you will need to use the screwdriver to strip away the insulation around it so that you can access the bare wire underneath. Once you have done this, you will then need to touch the bare wire to the corresponding terminal on the starter solenoid in order for current to flow and start the engine.

Breaking Ignition Lock With Screwdriver

To do this, insert the screwdriver into the hole in the ignition lock.

Be aware that this is a temporary fix and you should replace the ignition lock as soon as possible.
How to Start a Car With a Different Key
If you find yourself in a situation where you need to start a car with a different key, there are a few things you’ll need to do. First, locate the ignition switch on the steering column. It may be labeled “ignition” or have a symbol of a key.
Once you’ve found it, insert the key into the switch and turn it to the “on” position. Next, locate the starter button or switch. This is usually located near the ignition switch.
Press and hold this button for a few seconds until the engine starts. If your car has an automatic transmission, you’ll also need to press the brake pedal before starting the engine.
